Tyrosinase inhibitors as melanoma sensitizers: Boosting therapeutic efficacy
Melanoma therapy faces critical challenges due to melanin-mediated resistance mechanisms. The use of tyrosinase inhibitors to suppress tyrosinase activity and reduce melanogenesis, thereby sensitizing melanoma cells, represents a highly promising ...

Betalains in some species of the amaranthaceae family: A review [PDF]
Natural pigments are largely distributed in the plant kingdom. They belong to diverse groups, with distinct biochemical pathways. Betalains with colours that range from yellow to red-violet can de divided into two main subgroups: betaxanthins and ...

Thiopurine Drugs Repositioned as Tyrosinase Inhibitors [PDF]
Drug repositioning is the application of the existing drugs to new uses and has the potential to reduce the time and cost required for the typical drug discovery process. In this study, we repositioned thiopurine drugs used for the treatment of acute leukaemia as new tyrosinase inhibitors.

Antifouling bastadin congeners target blue mussel phenoloxidase and complex copper(II) ions [PDF]
Synthetically prepared congeners of spongederived bastadin derivatives such as 5,5'-dibromohemibastadin- 1 (DBHB) that suppress the settling of barnacle larvae were identified in this study as strong inhibitors of blue mussel phenoloxidase that is ...

Liquiritin and Liquiritigenin Induce Melanogenesis via Enhancement of p38 and PKA Signaling Pathways
Background: Liquiritin (LQ) and its aglycone, liquiritigenin (LQG), are major flavonoids in licorice root (Glycyrrhiza spp.). Our preliminary screening identified LQ and LQG, which promote melanin synthesis in the melanoma cells.
